Sacramento
I live with cerebral palsy. My occupational therapist at Sacramento General Hospital has assessed me and recommended a pair of hearing aids. The public scheme doesn't cover it, and the quote from the supplier is $3,600. My current equipment is 13 years old and keeps breaking, which has confined me to home for 7 weeks. With the right equipment I could go to school independently. It would change my everyday life and my ability to work from home. We've applied to two charities already and received small contributions; this campaign covers the rest. Funds go toward the equipment, delivery, fitting and a year of servicing. Where the $3,600 goes: • Fitting and training sessions: $300 • pair of hearing aids: $3,100 • First-year servicing plan: $200 Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot. - Ariana
